I know about bdancewear, discount dance, etsy and other mainstream sites but I don't seem to find the variety of color or selection of style that I'm looking for when it comes to crop tops and skirts/briefs to customize. Where do you ladies find your separates to appliqué and stone? There's got to be something I'm missing. What's your go-to site? Please share. I need some better options.

I just recently ordered some pieces from Patrick J designs. I don't know if I could actually recommend them because it's been 9 days and my items haven't even shipped yet. My inquiry as to what the hold up is hasn't been responded to.

FYI, Patrick J designs are made to order. You need to allow 12-15 days for production. I don't really understand why almost everything on his site is marked as sold out if they make it to order but whatever.

bdancewear will also do custom pieces, so if you find the right color, it might very well be worth the call. Last year, my daughter really wanted a a skirt with her costume. We had already found the top and were looking to match briefs/skirt to the top. I called bdancewear and talked to her. In the course of the conversation, I mentioned that the top was lace. She mentioned that they were starting to carry lace, but had not updated the website yet, so she sent me a fabric sample of the lace as well as the sheer. The lace ended up being perfect, and I never would have known about it if I had not called!

I noticed that. I wonder if they are just out of the fabric or if they are too busy to take many new orders. Thank you for the list. There were some new ones on there for me.
